Plastic Extrusion Design

Plastic Extrusion Design service

At our Ashbourne site we have a fully staffed new product development department with 2D and 3D CAD specialists and a rapid prototyping facility. Once we have agreed to make a tool for your bespoke product, our dedicated NPD department will take complete ownership of the process, managing each step in it’s design and manufacture, working with you until you have a signed off production sample. Having on-site 2D, 3D and CAD prototyping capability means our experienced design & engineering team will work closely with you to deliver fully integrated design solutions.

In-house tool making

A significant investment has been made to ensure that our toolroom is a world class facility. We have a newly built, large, modern toolroom which is fitted out with all of the relevant tool making equipment and we recently doubled the number of wire eroders we have on site. Our bespoke tooling is designed and manufactured in-house in our fully equipped, state of the art tool room. Our team of experienced toolmakers are focused on delivering high quality tools at competitive leadtimes. A team largely built from within and on an active apprenticeship program for tool makers where graduates now run whole production lines.

On-site colour matching

One of the feature which makes us unique here at Nenplas, is that we have our own on-site compounding lab. Our in-house PVC compounding plant was another strategic decision made a number of years ago. It provides customers with ultimate flexibility and fast turnaround on small or high volume material batch quantities as well as the ability to colour match to any RAL, Pantone or visual colour reference. Whilst we can of course use any material that you may require, we also have the ability to offer unique formulations.

Dedicated project team

We have a team of industry specialists who will take care of all of your requirements from your initial contact onwards. From sales through to design, manufacturing to supply chain, our dedicated teams work closely with you at all stages of the design and project process to ensure delivery on time & on cost. Right from the start of your relationship with us, a member of this team will become your account manager, supported day to day by our sales order processing department.
